Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After

Chapter 449 Could You

Handle Her

Carol hesitated, then added, "She was wearing a plaid shirt."

The woman had a moment of realization. "Ah, you mean Linsey? She was here but left just a moment ago."

Maintaining her composure, Carol inquired, "Does she also work here?"

Considering Linsey's relationship with the founder of CR Corporation, she might be in a senior role.

To Carol's surprise, the woman responded, "Yes, Linsey leads the Fashion Design Department."

The revelation startled Carol. "Just a department head?"

The woman appeared confused. "Is there a problem with that?"

After pondering for a moment, Carol explained, "I've known her for some time. She's exceptionally skilled, so it's unexpected that she's not in a higher position."

The woman offered an awkward laugh. "Linsey is quite young, though. Achieving a department head role at her age is quite notable."

Carol might not realize, being from an affluent background, the difficulties ordinary employees faced in advancing their careers.noveldrama

Curious, Carol asked, "Is Linsey from a well-known family?"

The expression of the woman subtly changed. "Not particularly. Most of our team members are from average backgrounds."

The only exception was Cynthia from the affluent Keller family.

The woman wondered why Carol was inquiring about these details.

Ready to end the conversation, Carol politely thanked the woman and walked away.

It appeared that nobody within CR Corporation was aware that Linsey was the founder's wife.

Even more startling was that despite her status, Linsey was merely a department head.

This led Carol to a conclusion-perhaps the founder didn't truly love Linsey.

The possibility began to solidify in Carol's mind, growing more convincing by the second.

As her suspicion turned into certainty, Carol's lips curled into a knowing smirk.

Here, perhaps, was her golden opportunity.

Imagining CR Corporation's charismatic founder within her reach sent a shiver of anticipation through Carol

At the same moment, Collin stepped into the conference room, preparing himself for the imminent video call with the executives from the Lawson Group.

Before he could sit, Dustin hurried in with an anxious sigh. "There's trouble downstairs-the Lawson girl is making a fuss at reception, demanding to meet you. The staff looks ready to surrender. Could you handle her?"

Annoyance flashed openly across Collin's face as he answered bluntly, "I'm not interested in speaking with her."

Considering Carol's behavior at the banquet, he suspected today's visit would only lead to more headaches.

Dustin continued cautiously, "She brought a bunch of bodyguards, and employees have started gathering downstairs. At this rate, reporters might catch wind, and that would cause unnecessary trouble."

He then leaned closer, voice dropping to nearly a whisper, "What's worse is that Carol's aware of your true identity as CR Corporation's founder. If she openly says anything inappropriate, and it reaches your wife's ears, things might spiral out of control."

Collin's expression darkened further at the thought.

“I don't understand how the Lawsons-supposedly a family of manners and dignity-managed to produce such an entitled daughter. Since her brother can't handle her, I suppose it's my job now." With unmistakable authority, Collin instructed Dustin, "Bring her upstairs immediately before I start the meeting." Moments later, Collin's assistant relayed the message down to reception.

"Miss Lawson, the founder has agreed to meet you upstairs," the receptionist said politely, turning toward Carol with a pleasant smile.

Immediately, a wave of murmurs broke out among the people who had gathered around.
